In this paper, we present techniques to detect, digitize and classify analytes. This is done by extracting appropriate features from sensor data and using pattern recognition methods to identify the analytes. The detection analog front-end achieves 54dB SNR. The low-noise digitization technique is presented along with the feature extraction and classification algorithms. Comparative results are given for a series of pattern classifiers.","PeriodicalId":409669,"journal":{"name":"2009 16th International Conference on Digital Signal Processing","volume":"234 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116203327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper introduces a new method for changeable face verification using random translational transformation. The proposed method is based on translating the original feature vectors by adding a randomly generated vector. The sorted index numbers of the resulting vector is stored as the template for verification. The random translational transformation in conjunction with the sorted index number approach constitutes a non-invertible transformation, and hence the privacy of the users can be protected. It is shown that the proposed method is computationally simple, and is capable of generating templates with strong changeability. The effectiveness of the proposed method is well supported by both the detailed analysis and extensive experimentation.","PeriodicalId":409669,"journal":{"name":"2009 16th International Conference on Digital Signal Processing","volume":"360 7","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114097867","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Multi-band frequency compression can be used for reducing the effect of spectral masking. The speech spectrum is divided into a number of bands and spectral samples in each of these bands are compressed towards the band center, by a constant compression factor. In the present study, we have investigated the effectiveness of the scheme for different compression factors, in improving the speech perception. Evaluation of the scheme using the modified rhyme test showed maximum improvement in recognition scores for compression factor of 0.6: about 17 % for the normal-hearing subjects under simulated hearing loss, and 6–21 % for the subjects with moderate to severe sensorineural hearing loss.","PeriodicalId":409669,"journal":{"name":"2009 16th International Conference on Digital Signal Processing","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114370724","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The choice of an intraband codec design is justified through an information theoretic analysis of the statistical dependencies between the wavelet coefficients resulting from a wavelet-based decomposition of the input 3D mesh. The bitstream produced by the proposed codec is both resolution and quality scalable. This lies in contrast with well-known zero-tree based interband coding techniques that only support quality scalability. The experimental results show that, on average, the proposed codec outperforms the state-of-the-art zero-tree based interband codec in rate-distortion sense when using the 2 L norm as target distortion metric.","PeriodicalId":409669,"journal":{"name":"2009 16th International Conference on Digital Signal Processing","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125858837","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In general, for Free viewpoint TV (FTV) applications, it is necessary that multi-view videos are efficiently compressed before transmission. Our algorithm synthesizes extra video streams and uses them as extra references when coding the original views. These streams are synthesized based on the already encoded frames from neighboring views, without requiring the scene's depth information. The proposed scheme utilizes both motion and disparity compensation methods to exploit temporal and inter-view correlation within each view sequence and among views, respectively. To guarantee the best bitrate performance, our algorithm adaptively re-sorts the reference frame list, such that minimum number of bits is used for coding reference frame indices. Performance evaluations show that our proposed coding method outperforms the recent multiview coding standard by up to 1 dB PSNR and enhances the compression ratio by 22.97%.","PeriodicalId":409669,"journal":{"name":"2009 16th International Conference on Digital Signal Processing","volume":"289 1-2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123731168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Video Analytics is required to work on good resolution footage in order to register tiny but important information that may otherwise be lost during subsequent compression process, especially in temporally exploited streams. This paper presents a novel approach to estimate 3D location coordinates of selected control points from panning camera footage. The two frames at different panning angles are considered to be two images captured from two different coplanar viewpoints with some translational distance between their optical centers. To simulate panned images as coplanar the information required is the panning angle. With the help of the panning angle transformational matrix two image planes are calculated. The approach developed here will help extract motion descriptors, including and not limited to, motion activity and direction of motion activity. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated in the paper using several test sequences.
